Translator: Henyee Translations Editor: Henyee Translations

In the water prison.

In the dark and damp cell, many disobedient or erring subordinates were imprisoned. They were chained by their hands and suspended in the air, with their lower bodies submerged in water.

Sof them had also been whipped, their bodies covered in crisscrossing wounds.

In the fifth cell of the water prison, Lu Yichen was being punished in the sway, but luckily, he hadn’t been whipped.

As the door of the water prison opened and closed, several people walked in, led by a woman in black. She had slightly curly hair, indicating her mixed heritage.

The woman, named Qiao Hongyun, led her group directly to the fifth cell, looking at Lu Yichen with a complicated gaze. “Why do you have to put yourself in such a situation?”

Lu Yichen glanced at Qiao Hongyun, his eyes icy cold. “What are you doing here?”

Qiao Hongyun pressed her lips together. “Godfather said, if you marry me, he will let you out and won’t make things difficult for your mother.”

Lu Yichen hated being threatened the most. Hearing this, his eyes turned as cold and sharp as a blade. “Go back and tell him to give up on that thought.”

Having been controlled for the first half of his life, he would rather die than let them control him again.

Qiao Hongyun seemed hurt. “So, you have no feelings forat all?”

Lu Yichen sarcastically replied, “You belong to him. Do you think 1 should have feelings for you? Qiao Hongyun, you should wake up. You’re the one who disclosed my whereabouts, right?”

Qiao Hongyun denied, “I didn’t betray you.”

But she was the one who had betrayed him. Jealous of Lu Yichen’s freedom and companionship, she couldn’t stand that they both lived in darkness yet he seemed to have it all.

Lu Yichen glared at her, ordering, “Get out!”

Qiao Hongyun reluctantly spoke, “I just wanted to save you, nothing else. Lu Yichen, cooperate with me, and 1 can quickly get you out.”

Lu Yichen’s tone was icy, “I don’t need your rescue.”

“Do you want to be locked up here for the rest of your life? Yichen, it was Godfather’s intention to let you marry me, not mine. I know you’re not interested in me. Why don’t you put on an act? Cout first?”

“I won’t take this kind of thing lightly.”

Qiao Hongyun questioned resentfully, “Do you want to marry Wu Yaqing?”

Lu Yichen’s heart skipped a beat, but his expression remained unchanged. He warned her with a fierce look, “What do you mean?”

Qiao Hongyun’s tone softened. “I know that you’re very close to a girl, and Godfather also knows that. 1 don’t have any other intentions. I just want to tell you that Godfather knows more than you think. Don’t make the wrong choice.”

Lu Yichen suddenly felt physically and mentally exhausted. He had a feeling that he could not break out of the cage no matter what. He clenched his fists and said with a cold expression, “What exactly does he want?”

Qiao Hongyun didn’t know her godfather’s intentions, but she was sure he wouldn’t let Lu Yichen go. “Lu Yichen, this standoff isn’t doing you any good…” Lu Yichen shouted in a deep voice, “Get lost!”

At that moment, a commanding voice echoed from outside, “Hand over the person, or 1’11 bloodbath this place!”

Lu Yichen’s heart skipped a beat. It was Wu Yaqing’s voice. How did she find this place and say such domineering words? Who was she?

Qiao Hongyun’s expression changed slightly. This place was remote, and it was unlikely that anyone would be able to find it. How could the other party have found this place?

Thoughts kept running through her mind, and she immediately walked out with her men.

This was a courtyard, and the surroundings were silent. The night seemed to have isolated this place from the surroundings. Wu Yaqing and three hundred golden guards were distributed in the courtyard. The golden guards were dressed in martial arts attire, and each of them stood tall and straight, exuding an imposing aura.

Wu Yaqing, dressed in riding attire and draped in a black cloak that fluttered in the wind, exuded a blend of nobility and boldness.

Qiao Hongyun looked around, her eyes dark. “Wu Yaqing, I’ve underestimated you. 1 didn’t expect you to find this place and bring so many people with you!”

Wu Yaqing threatened in a low voice, “Hand over Lu Yichen, and I’ll spare your life!”

Qiao Hongyun laughed, “You’re too naive, Wu Yaqing. Either you kill us all and rescue Lu Yichen, or… you’ll be staying here too!”

“You think you can keep me?” Wu Yaqing scoffed scornfully. “1 doubt you have that capability!”

As she stepped back, Wu Yaqing waved her hand, giving the order, “Kill them!”

Qiao Hongyun also commanded, “Kill them!”

The two sides clashed fiercely, turning the small courtyard into a battlefield. Blood splattered on a nearby lantern, causing it to sway slightly in the light breeze.

Wu Yaqing and Qiao Hongyun locked eyes across the chaos, each unyielding.

Inside the water prison, Lu Yichen’s heart was in turmoil. He had considered all possibilities but never imagined Wu Yaqing would cto rescue him!

The Golden Guards were incredibly powerful and soon left Qiao Hongyun’s men dead.

Seeing this scene, Qiao Hongyun’s expression was extremely ugly. She immediately wanted to escape. “Wu Yaqing, 1’11 remember you!” After saying this, she jumped onto the roof and prepared to escape.

“I won’t give you that chance!” Wu Yaqing raised her arm, firing three sleeve arrows, all striking Qiao Hongyun.

Qiao Hongyun, mid-leap, was hit and fell to the ground. She glared at Wu Yaqing, dying with her eyes open in defiance.

The Golden Guards cleared the path, and Wu Yaqing entered the water prison, quickly finding Lu Yichen. “Get him out of here.”

The guards broke the lock, entered the water, cut the chains, and helped Lu Yichen out of the cell.

Lu Yichen had been watching Wu Yaqing since she entered, his eyes shedding their coldness, revealing surprise, gratitude, and a mix of emotions..

Wu Yaqing patted Lu Yichen’s face, “Are you alright?”

Lu Yichen suddenly cback to his senses. He was actually engrossed in Wu Yaqing just now. “I’m fine. Thank you for saving me.”

Wu Yaqing said cheerfully, “There’s a saying in the Dating Dynasty, a life-saving grace should be repaid with a lifelong commitment. Now that I’ve saved you, not to mention a lifelong commitment, your life is mine.”

Lu Yichen readily agreed, “Alright.”

Wu Yaqing nodded in satisfaction. “Can you walk? Let’s leave this place first. This place is full of corpses. It’s not comfortable to stay here.”

Under Lu Yichen’s guidance, the group arrived at a hidden courtyard. “Everyone, rest here. No one knows that this is my place.”

Wu Yaqing looked around; it was indeed secluded. She instructed the Golden Guards to treat the injured and rest the others, as they were no longer needed here.

The Golden Guards vanished without a trace.

Lu Yichen also fell to the ground and fainted.

Wu Yaqing struggled to carry Lu Yichen back to his room. Touching his forehead, she noted, “You are burning up!”

Her gaze shifted to Lu Yichen’s wet clothes. Wearing wet clothes would definitely worsen his condition…

After pacing around, she made a bold decision… Squinting her eyes, she undressed Lu Yichen, covered him with a blanket, and left the room to find Chu Qingzhi..
